New Years Resolutions
15:34:00It's that time of year again folks. The time of year where we all promise to go on a diet, or stop eating chocolate but then we get to February 1st and we're sat on the sofa with a big old bar of Cadbury's Dairy Milk all to ourselves.
I cannot believe that it's already 2015, it's absolutely mental. 2014 was both a great and awful year for me. I'm not going to go into how "2014 changed my life blahblah", but so much happened and so much changed over the last year that it scares me a little that 2015 may hold so much more. I honestly feel that I'm entering 2015 as a more positive and happy person. I've found myself, after spending a lot of the last couple of years trying to be someone I wasn't and I've been able to relax a little bit more (sometimes more than I should... I'll admit).
I started 2015 by visiting my boyfriend who lives in the UK and it was honestly the nicest week and a
much needed break from the stress of sixth form. He lives in York and we went out on New Year to the town with his friends to celebrate and it was probably one of the nicest new years I've had.
But this year is so important for me because it's that awful year where I have to get into university. I feel sick just typing those words out. I've got into uni in Salford, Manchester but I have to get a C overall in my English A-level. I mean, I know I'm capable of getting a C, but the pressure to get into uni this year is unreal, giving the fact that I stayed at sixth form for an extra year to redo my english A-level. Don't get me wrong, I'm so excited to go to uni and to move to the UK and to be closer to my friends & family, but it's getting there that is the problem. However, I'm going to try my best to stay positive and optimistic because I can do it!
1. Start doing work as soon as you get it. For gods sake women you know this saves time & effort
I WILL START DOING THIS. I go through phases of doing work as soon as I get it and feeling so organised and great, but then a few days later it's a case of "I'll do it tomorrow". We all know it.
2. Keep your 'environment' clean
By environment, I mean my room. Floordrobes are not acceptable in 2015.
3. Drink more water
Simple.
4. Work out atleast twice a week
I've been quite good at doing this, even in 2014, so I'm hoping to keep it up.
5. Catch up with all of the TV series that I started watching last year and never finished
Game Of Thrones, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, The Office, Cougar Town... The list goes on and on and on.
6. Take more photos
My camera this year will be travelling everywhere with me, because if I got £1 for every time I though "I really wish I had my camera right now" I would be rich.
7. Have the biggest clear out ever
This will be happening before I leave for uni, but it will probably take about half of 2015 with the amount of stuff I have.
8. Stop caring
I spent too much of last year getting hung up on the silliest things that people said, or did, and I wasted too much time on people who I learnt do not matter. It made me unhappy and that's not what I want this year to be about. I've come to learn not to put time into those who don't do the same for me and slowly, I'm becoming more contempt as I let people go.
9. Get a tattoo (maybe)
Reckless. I know.
10. Do not give up
This one to me, is the most important. I don't want to give up on anything this year, whether that be myself, my plans for uni, my relationship, anything (unless of course it's really necessary...) It's so easy for me to just give up on things, or to drop things there are then, but this year I don't want to live like that. I want to do things and see things through to my fullest potential and actually achieve something.
Wow, deep.
So, happy new year to all of you and I hope that your christmas and new year celebrations were truly wonderful. What are your resolutions for 2015?
Peace,
